to strip away all
by Aaron Michaelmostly because they can make people cry
people are like onions,
but,
in the fact that they have layers you
can strip down and dress up
and give flavor and flare
is it more
than just
pain that defines us.
strip down someone's defense and
you end with vunerability, but
cut, and stab straight for the core
and you'll end tearful and fearful
and learned,
and know nothing, save that
defenses are there for a reason. 08/22/2007 Author's Note: TAG! (this was a crap tag, i hope you forgive me)
